I'm so sorry for not updating this story in a while. I've been busy with some other things. I do not own anything except the plot line. One thing I did notice about Noah was he was sarcastic on the show but not on his interview. I find that a little interesting.

Courtney's mom opened her eyes slightly then closed them. She opened them again and closed them to adjust to the light. She opened them one more time and had her eyes adjusted to the light. She moved her head up and rubbed her face with her right hand. "How are you feeling mom?" Courtney asked while her mom tried to understand her surroundings.

She smiled, "I'm ok, Courtney. I just wish that you..." Her eyes widen in realization, and she turned to her daughter who was smiling at her. "You're alive?"

Courtney nodded her head and said, "I never died mom. Heather lied to you guys." Her mom pulled her into a deep hug which made Courtney just smile. "I know you worried about me mom, but I never died because I'm to dangerous to be killed."

"What about the others?" She asked while getting out of her hug with her daughter.

Courtney smiled and sat down on the bed. "The only people who are dead are Lindsay, Beth, Geoth, Alejandro, Gwen, and Sadie. Courtney tapped her chin for a second and raised an eyebrow. "We thought Noah and Tyler were dead earlier and found out they were still alive and well which surprised us a bit. Noah is in a research lab where one of Heather's main forts is. We plan on getting him out of there soon, but I was wondering if you were feeling ok."

Her mother smiled at her and moved her legs and arms a bit. "I feel fine now which is weird."

"I'll explain later." Courtney's dad said to them.

Harold turned on the speakers to the headquarters and cleared his throat. "May everyone please meet in the main room? There is an announcement that needs to be said for everyone to hear." Harold looked at his parents and smiled, "It will be explained in the meeting." He turned off the the speakers and got up from his seat.

Cody opened the door and jumped out of the tube and helped his mother get out fine. His father gets out with Owen following him. Sierra just runs out and stands next to Cody with a smile on her face. "I'm going to go find my mom." She says smiling. "I'll be with you guys in a little bit." She ran off leaving the others to walk to the main room. She stopped a few feet behind her mom with a smile on her face. "You-do-know-that-the-possibility-for-us-to-be-dead-is-pretty-low."

Her mother turns around and stares at her daughter in surprise. She crossed her arms and smiled, "I was told by Katie that you and the others had your bodies enhanced by a serum, but I wouldn't think it would make you talk a little too fast."

Sierra giggled, "It made my body work quicker in many ways." She ran up next her mom with a glass of water in her hand. "I was given super speed for many good purposes." She drinks the water and puts the glass down on the table when it was empty. "Ah, that was refreshing." She looked into the main room and sighed, "Well, I guess that they're going to tell the parents that don't know about our powers. It would bring many shocked faces for what some of them can do."

Cody walked into the main room with his hands behind his head. He sits down on the chair and smiles at the people gathering around in the room. Tyler ran into the room and jumped over the couch only to have his foot hit the top of the couch to make him hit the table head first. Tyler got up rubbing his head. "Oh man, I thought that bad luck has finally rubbed off." He sat down on the couch next to his mom and Katie's dad. He looked back and forth then got up. "I might want to stand with the others."

Cody shrugged, "Hey, I can't argue with that since we do have to explain about our unique abilities." Cody jumped into the air and floated upside down to the other end of the room. "Well, this is embarrassing."

Duncan snapped a picture on his phone and smiled, "Yeah, but it does make a good picture."

Cody glared at Duncan and turned himself to be floating right side up. "I wonder if the camera got any embarrassing parts of you." Duncan's eyes widen in surprise which makes Cody smirk. "I'm taking that as a yes."

'He got me off guard again. I really hate that.' Duncan deleted the picture off his phone and groaned. "There it's deleted. I'll delete what's on the camera after you see it. Deal?"

"Deal." Cody said in agreement.

Heather felt the needle go into her skin and felt the dark power go into her body. She closed her eyes in pain and fell to the floor with her hands on her head. She started screaming while her body was being taken over by the dark power. The wings appeared on her back and her nails grew longer to become claws. Her screaming stopped while her wings took full form on her back. She fell unconscious right after her body became grey with her eyes turning red. The researcher smiled at his creation. "The monster has finally been created, and I'm thankful for her created us to work for her purpose." He walked away while a guard picked Heather up off the ground. "Make sure she gets some sleep tonight. She'll need it to train on her new power."

"I'll make sure of it." The guard said before walking off with her. The guard looked at her closely and sighed, "What did he do to you Heather? I do not like you becoming this powerful." The guard walked into her room with a frown on his face. "You should have thought about what you were doing before this had even started. I might be a clone, but I don't know who I'm fighting for anymore."

Inside Heather's mind

Heather looked at her surroundings and narrowed her eyes at the dark figure before her. She turned her head to the figure at her right with fire surrounding it. "Who are you guys?" She asked them.

Dark Heather chuckled, "We're your power in separate forms. In your body we are combined for so much power you have been given, but your body isn't complete yet. You need more power to take out those Total Drama losers."

"I have to agree." Fire Heather said. She held her sword and threw it at Heather who caught it without feeling any pain. "You are able to wield our power without trouble, but it will take time to train to use these powers that you obtain."

Heather looked at the two then realized something. 'This is my mind which means that they're controlling my body in some way, but I need to control them.' "Ok, I want to learn how to control these new powers added to my body and will destroy the Total Drama."

Dark Heather chuckled, "You see that's where you are right and wrong." Fire Heather and Heather looked at Dark Heather with a raised eyebrow. "I'm taking over you body forever."

"What!" Fire Heather yelled in frustration. "You are not doing that one bit. We agreed that we will never take over her body."

Dark Heather made chains come around Heather's wrists and ankles and pulled her down to the ground. "You are no longer in control Heather. You lost your will to control yourself the day you let us enter you body."

"NO!" Fire Heather yelled while jumping in front of Heather. "Who are you really?"

"Heather's deepest and darkest desires coming to life." She said before making her hands become extremely encased with dark power. "I see that I have to care of the fire wanting to help Heather."

Heather tried to move her body but failed at moving anything left of her. 'I shouldn't have accepted the dark power. I shouldn't have done any of this. Guys, I need you help.' A tear escaped her left eye and ran down her left cheek. 'I need someone to hear the real me.'

Outside her mind

Heather's red eyes opened up while her body turned a little darker. She got up with a smirk on her face. "It is time to pull them out of hiding." She opened the door with the evil sparkle in her eyes. She looked at her two guards and walked by them while they looked at her in surprise. "Don't stare at me." She told them darkly. 'This life is going to be great.'

Harold had finished explaining to the parents minus Courtney's parents about what had been recently put into everyone's dna. Some of the adults were confused and asked if there could be a demonstration. Tyler raised his hand in the air and yelled, "Oh, I'm first!" He turned around and slammed right into the wall.

Cody winced at the sight and said, "Uh, we'll have to wait on Tyler."

"I'll go since my power is pretty normal and safe. I just don't know if Courtney's power would be safe." Bridgette said while walking into the training room. "I trust Courtney and everyone else, but her power could reach out of her grasp if she isn't careful." She walked into the middle of the room and got into her battle stance. "I'm ready Harold."

Harold pressed a couple buttons and started up the training program. "Level 7 activated." The computer said which made Leshawna smirk at Harold.

"You're going soft on me Harold? I thought you would give me a challenge." Bridgette smirked while Harold pressed a few more buttons.

"Level 20 activated."

Bridgette jumped into the air and created a water sword in her hand. She landed on the ground when the saw goes by on the ground. 'This is more like it.' She ran after the saw and smiled as it came back to her. She jumped back and did a back flip while slicing two guns coming out of the ceiling. She created a clone of herself which made everyone's eyes widen in surprise. The clone surrounded her hands in water and ran at the motion sensored guns. The real Bridgette cuts the saw in half then jumps to avoid the giant axe swinging in the air. She covers her left hand in water and strikes the metal on the swinging axe. She noticed that it didn't do any damage which made her put the water away in her hand. She narrowed her eyes and jumped into the air. The clone made the ground become covered in water then disappeared into the water. Bridgette held her sword tight and sliced the metal in half down the middle. She landed on top of the water and smiled to herself. The more saws flew at her in front while two lasers shot at her in the back. The weapons went through her body, and water fell right into the water below.

"When did she get so good?" Leshawna asked out loud with wide eyes. "We just got our powers, yet she is able to do all of this."

Harold typed on the control panel and looked over he actions. "Most of what she's doing is on her reflexes. Her power seems to be enhancing a bit for her as well."

Bridgette popped out of the water with a smile on her face and made a giant water sword in her right hand. "I'm getting tired on the computer being slow Harold. When is it going to be upgraded?" She asked then saw nine little robots come out of the top. "Those were suppose to be here two minutes ago." She said pointing at the robots. "I rather spar against one of my friends then do this simulation." The robots fired at her, and the lasers just went right through her. She crossed her arms and looked up at Harold. "I'm waiting."

"Well, it would be more challenging if you went against me instead of the machines." Courtney said walking into the training room with sparks of electricity running over her hands. She walked onto the water with a smile on her face. "It's a good thing that I can withstand being electrocuted, but I wonder if you can withstand it."

Bridgette felt the water tingling beneath her toes and chuckled, "I'm pure water right now Courtney. I can't get electrocuted when I'm pure water." She made her arms turn into water and shot them straight at Courtney. Bridgette blinked a couple times and stopped before they landed on Courtney. "Are you sure about this Courtney? I'm not going to hold back."

Courtney smirked and made her hands get covered with electricity. "I'm sure of it."

"Don't you dare start fighting each other." Leshawna said through the microphone. "You two are starting to become way too powerful in just a short time. I'm sure the rest of us are as well, but we want to show off our powers too."

Cody, I have a feeling the serum is doing something else without us realizing it. We might want to study the serum a little more. Harold thought to Cody who nodded as a response.

"I want to go next." Sierra said taking off which made everyone blink except Cody who just shook his head. Sierra opened the door and stopped before touching the water. "Are you guys going to get out or not?"

Courtney made her hands turn to normal and said, "Sorry Sierra, but I never had a turn yet. I want to show off against Bridgette first if that's okay with everyone."

"I'm cool with it." Duncan pointing his thumb at himself.

Leshawna rolled her eyes and said, "Alright Courtney, you can show off your powers, but you are going against me girl. Bridgette showed enough of what she can do. Someone else needs to show what she can do and that girl is me." She pointed at herself which made Bridgette roll her eyes and smile. Leshawna got up and walked out of the room while Harold pressed a couple buttons on the control panel.

"Ok, you might as well show off your element. I've had enough fun for now anyway." Bridgette absorbed all the water and made herself go back to her normal human form. "Wow, I never thought turning myself into water would feel so cool."

Courtney blinked and asked, "How did you do that?"

Bridgette shrugged and put her hands on her hips. "To be honest it happened when I made my clone flood the room. I felt something going on inside my body and realized I somehow made myself turn into water while looking normal. I'm still trying to figure out why it happened."

Leshawna walked into the room with a smirk on her face, and Bridgette walked out of the room with a smile on her face. Leshawna walked to the end of the room and said, "I'm ready for anything you throw at me Courtney. You just better not make yourself go overboard with your electricity, or I might make myself go into overdrive."

Courtney made her hand become completely electricity while her eyes started to glow blue with tiny sparks escaping them. "Before we start I have one thing to ask. Harold, what did you put in that serum?" She asked turning to the window.

Harold's eyes widen in surprise when he saw the sparks around Courtney's eyes. "This couldn't be happening right now. Your powers shouldn't be evolving this fast." Suddenly Courtney, Leshawna, Bridgette, Ezekiel, Tyler, Sierra, Owen, Justin, Katie, Trent, and Harold fainted into unconsciousness at the same time.

Cody watched as they fell unconscious and went up to Sierra. He shook her only to get nothing to come out of her. Duncan's eyes widen in shock at the sight before him. "What just happened dude? Why is almost everyone unconscious Cody?"

"I don't know man. I need everyone to get everyone that is unconscious into the infirmary." The parents nod their heads and pick up everyone unconscious and take them to the infirmary. Cody turned to DJ and said, "DJ, you better hope your powers could do something to help us out in this." Cody said while opening the case with the serum in it. 'What went wrong with the serum?' He looked at the needles and widened his eyes in surprise. On the needles were little drops of poison minus five of them. "This can't be right. DJ, Izzy, Duncan, Eva, and I are the only people who didn't get poisoned, but how did the poison get on the needles in the first place?" Cody said to himself but caught the attention from his com rads.

Eva walked up to Cody and asked, "Found anything yet?"

Cody glanced at Eva with horror in his eyes. "They've been poisoned which would explain their rapid growth on their powers."

Duncan and Eva's eyes widen in horror while Izzy grabbed one of the poisoned needles. She glanced over it carefully and said, "This poison looks like something that would enhance something in the body where it would possibly kill you. I've seen it done before. It is very deadly if you don't remove the poison in thirty hours after the person has fainted." Izzy put the needle down and sighed, "Unfortunately the poison will go to the one thing that will certainly kill the person which means that if the others are saved they won't have their powers anymore."

"When did you get smart?" Eva asked curiously.

"I heard some guy explained it while I was being held at a prison for blowing up twenty cars." Izzy said which made Duncan's eyes widen in surprise. "It was suppose to be a hundred, but the cops got to me before I could plant the rest of the bombs."

'She is seriously going to need more help later on if she's going to be normal at all. Who am I kidding? She'll never be normal.' Cody thought. 'Why did these needles have poison on them? We stole these needles from Heather after she stole most of our supplies from our base in Garmany. She must have set us up to do that, but she doesn't have the brains to do that. Is someone else the main reason behind her leadership and power? If it is true then Heather is in more danger than we are right now.'

Duncan waved his hand in front of Cody's face then snapped his fingers. "Cody, are you ok man? Are you even there?" He asked him.

Eva cracked her knuckles. "Let me handle this."

Cody blinked and looked at Duncan and Eva and said, "Heather's not the enemy."

The three stare at Cody in surprise when he said that. "What do you mean?" Eva asked raising an eyebrow.

"Someone is controlling Heather into all of this. Heather doesn't have the brains to think ahead on everything unless she was focused on one goal. Man, how could I not see this earlier? She's smart enough to do most of the things she did, but she isn't smart enough to do most of it. She isn't the reason why the world is at war now. Someone else is behind all of this, and we need to find out, but the others need to be cured first."

"How can we cure them if we don't have anything to work with?" Duncan asked gritting his teeth in anger.

"I can answer that question." Noah said while walking into the room with a frown on his face. "Don't worry. I was able to steal the antidote to get the poison out of their bodies." He said pulling a small case out of his pocket. "This is an adjustable case where they keep personal things to curse and cure people in the lab. When I blew the lab up I was able to sneak away with the most valuable thing they had there with a couple plans of what they are going to do to Heather." He put the case down on the table and snapped his fingers. The case grew in size and opened up to reveal thirty different types of liquids. Noah picked up the purple one on the end and said, "This is the poison that they used on the needles to advance the body structure till it is too hard for them to even control. It would normally try to enhance body structure and make the body have to many blood cells, but we have powers that the serum created which messed with the poison in our favor." He put the vile down then picked up the red one that was next to the purple one. "This is the antidote that we need. Their powers wouldn't be at full strength at where they had it earlier, but they will keep their powers and would probably need a lot of training again. How long have they been out?"

"I have to say at least half an hour." Duncan said tapping his chin. "I do have one question though. Why are you still alive?"

Noah chuckled, "You see Heather found out that she is being used before she even started it all, but I should say that she was mind controlled when it all started. I'll tell you guys more after we get the poison removed, and I know that their powers could be removed even with this antidote. I studied in secret and hid my clues for Chef to find in the books I written to be put in Heather's library. I just hope Chef is able to find everything out before he and Chris die like everyone else has. They'll be weak when the poison is removed and will be unable to do anything for a week which is what the real mastmind wants to happen. I have a lot of information to give you guys, but this has to be injected into their systems."

"Then I'll take it to DJ." Eva said taking it from Noah. "With Trent out of commission Cody and Duncan are the only two leaders who are not poisoned and will need to know everything you know. Izzy, I need you to come with me for now. These three are going to need to talk about this situation alone."

Izzy nodded and sighed, "Ok, I guess that I can't be a part of everything." Izzy and Eva run out of the room leaving the three guys alone.

Noah sat down on the table and closed the case. He sighed and closed his eyes. "The real mastermind has been creating powerful weapons in the research lab before he even started the war. At first he made an army to control and decided to convince Heather that they will serve her. He did pretty well at making her believe that controlling the world would be a good idea, but he was considering that she was up to something when she started to capture us. Gwen, Lindsay, and Beth were killed instantly with no talk before their deaths. Sadie had the same fate from what I'm told. She tried to convince Alejandro to join her in conquering the world, but he refused since he thought that she lost it. She never got to tell him the real reason, but she was able to tell me and Geoff."

The two guys stare at Noah in surprise. "Is Geoff still alive?" Cody asked.

Noah shook his head. "No, unfortunately the real mastermind killed Geoff by poisoning him as a test subject. Heather doesn't know the real reason. I was suppose to die as well that day, but Heather had me transferred to a room in the research lab fort because of my brains. The guy actually agreed with her to get ideas that they never came up that were inside my brain. Heather decided to put the files in a secret area and put them in a secret base in Brazil which you guys recovered. Heather doesn't show it most of the time, but she's actually on our side until the man decides to inject her with the darkness power."

"What in the world is the darkness power?" Duncan asked gritting his teeth.

Noah sighed, "It's a power that is mostly used for evil purposes that can control any person if she has a lot of evil inside the heart. I wouldn't be surprised if it inside her body right now. He probably just said something that made her think it would be useful to take us down. She had to make it convincing enough for him which is probably to accept the power. However, her fire power is under her normal control just like our powers are which I would like to know what your powers are anyway, but I might as well finish my explanation. Since Heather decided to move me to another room which is more private than the dungeon she was able to secretly hand me something that I never thought was true. She's been fighting with us since the beginning."

"I do not believe that one bit." Duncan said shaking his head. He crossed his arms and sighed, "She's been against us since the beginning. She was the person who started the war. We should know since nearly everyone was there when it happened."

Noah nodded, "I didn't believe her either until I saw the device on her back. The man captured Heather and put a device on her back that he could use to control her into thinking nothing good at all. She found a way to overpower it when Gwen found out about the device by just hitting it. She died with no care because of the discovery. Heather had only ten percent of control over her body when Gwen hit it, but Heather was barely able to even get much control at all. When she got it up to thirty percent which was after her battle at the dome city she was happy Leshawna and Cody damaged the device more. She has a way with words since the book I was reading while being trapped there was what she was actually saying in her mind when she was in the room. I know that it sounds crazy, but it is true. She talks normal to me like it comes naturally, but she had a chip put in her brain and connected it with a book." He pulled the book out of his shirt and tossed it to Cody. "Each page is what she told me from her brain. The real mastermind's name is still unknown right now since Heather never asked his name. The last time we spoke was right before I made my escape. I injected the serum into my body and ended up with some natural abilities."

"Yep. Now we just have to make you angry and say 'bub' as a natural word." Duncan joked which made Noah groan. Cody snickered and turned to the closed case. "We'll worry about the other liquids later."

Cody looked at Duncan and said, "I know, but there are a few things that need to be answered, but I'll ask them later. I'm just wondering what the dark power will be like when we go against it."

Duncan shrugged, "Who knows? We've been at war for a few years, and the battles coming up ahead are not going to be much different from our past battles unless the dark power is more than Noah actually believes."

"Can't argue to that." Noah said while getting off the table. He pulled out a piece of paper and unfolded it. "This is the list of what the guy has created during the war and what he will use on Heather. The serum was my idea that he took to give Heather power. The dark power was something that I never dreamed of him creating which gets me even more worried than I have ever felt my entire life besides falling out of a plane about to crash into the ground back in Japan." Cody and Duncan nod in agreement. "All we can do right now is wait on Eva to cure everyone who has the poison inside their bodies. Lets just hope that nothing bad is going to happen from this."

Dark Heather walked down the hallway with an evil grin on her face. 'You were smart enough to create me Drune Dine, but you don't even know the evil I'm capable of.' She snapped her fingers and smiled as she felt an explosion happening in the research lab. Drune came out into the hallway with black smoke over his body. He looked up at Dark Heather and smiled while she crossed her arms. "You seem a little happy about what I am now." She told him. "You're a fool to actually create me in the first place. You might be the master mind behind everything from the beginning, but I will be the ruler from the beginning and will never lose my place of being the ruler."

Drune smirked, "You have some nerve saying that Heather."

"Actually, Heather no longer exists in this world anymore Dine."

Drune's eyes widen in shock. 'No way, the power I injected her is acting on its own. I'm unable to control her now. This isn't Heather anymore. Which means that the real me is going to be her main target after the Total Drama is destroyed.' The copy chuckled and removed his glasses. "I hate to disappoint you, but the real Drune isn't here in this building like you thought he was. He's actually in hiding incase something like this would have happened. Noah was clever enough to create the serum to give you the ability to control fire, but he's not smart enough to give you the power of darkness. I've given you everything you need."

"Yes, but the real Heather no longer is able to control her powers, and I'm not going to help her control my power." She put her hand forward and made a metal sword with dark aura surrounding it in her hand. "I'm sure Dine will not mind losing one of his clones."

The clone's eyes widen in surprise and put his hands up. "Wait, can't we talk this over or something? I'm sure that you don't want to be hasty about this right now."

"You're right about me not being hasty." She said throwing the sword straight at the heart of the clone.

Chef came into the dungeon with a bowl of rice in his left hand and widened his eyes at the sight before him. Chris was chained to the wall with cuts and bruises over his body with blood covering him everywhere. "Chris?" Chef looked at Chris worringly who smiled weakly before passing out to his death. "Oh no, the torture chamber ended up begin too much for him." He looked at the rice and shrugged, "Oh well, I have one less mouth to feed anyway, but it is bad losing a good friend to Heather." He saluted Chris's lifeless body and turned around. "Goodbye old friend. You were a good person who deserved to die." He walks out of the room with a smirk. 'He's actually a selfish person who needed to die.'

Noah opened his file up and smiled at the ideas in it. "Yep, these ideas are definitely mine."

"We already knew that." Duncan said not looking at Noah. "Cody and Harold confirmed it when we got back from that mission."

Noah shrugged while DJ comes walking into the room with a small smile. "Everyone's cured you guys, but they'll probably be out for a little while, and we need a place for the parents to be staying at while we're fighting."

Eva walks into the room with a sandwich in her left hand and a soda in her right hand. "Well, we could have them go to the resort base down at Hawaii. I'm sure they'll enjoy being there. Plus, it is one place Heather does not want to destroy."

"I'm cool with that." Duncan said getting up from his seat. "I'll get the parents to go there with Izzy and Eva. DJ will need to watch over the patients while Cody and Noah look over the files and try to see what they could create to help with our powers."

Cody pulls out a sketch and chuckles, "Well, I found what we need to help Eva control her strength, and it is a good old nice favorite thing she likes doing from time to time."

Eva put the sandwich in her mouth and took the plans from Cody. She looked them over and gave it back to Cody. She took the sandwhich out of her mouth and said, "I like it, but how long will it take until it is done being built?"

"Two or three hours max." Noah said holding up three fingers. "We'll worry about the building later though. Right now, I want to see how everyone else is doing. It's been a little while since I saw them." Noah walked out of the room with his hands in his pockets while Cody closes the file shaking his head.

Duncan shook his head and made a sword appear on his back. "I'm starting to enjoy creating things with metal." He said while making the sword become a double sword. He pulls it off his back and twirls it around before gripping the handle. "What do you guys think about this?"

DJ gulped, "I'm not a fighting expert Duncan, but I am going to be honest about this. Your new sword is pretty cool, but I prefer working in the infirmary than fighting." He walked towards the door then turned to Cody. "Sierra will be fine Cody."

"It's not Sierra I'm worried about now." Cody said which made everyone look at him surprised. "If Noah is right about his information, we're probably going to end up fighting someone that we know that isn't Heather." Cody opened the book and turned it to the page. "This page talks about the power to control the dead. Who do we know that would be the most likely candidate to have that power even if the person is dead?"

Duncan's eyes widen in shock. "Oh no, please don't tell me that...?"

Cody nodded. Dark Heather walks into the lab and grabs the needle covered in black liquid. "Yes, Gwen is going to be revived and put under Heather's control." Dark Heather walks over to the Gwen's empty body and sticks the needle right in Gwen's shoulder. "I don't know how much time we have before the new army would be coming out to get us, but I fear that we have to kill Gwen before the others regain conscious. If we fail to do that, I don't know if the others are able to handle the pain and suffering while going against one of our friends." Dark Heather smiles evilly while Gwen opens her eyes. She looks around and gasps in shock when she sees Dark Heather. "I don't know if the old Gwen would come back and try to fight against the control, but we still have to face her."

"It's about time you woke up Gwen." Dark Heather said smiling evilly.

Gwen narrows her eyebrows at Dark Heather and smiles, "What is you command master?"

"We are so doomed." Duncan said.

"I couldn't agree more." Eva said before taking the last bite of her sandwich. "Where we are now just makes it look like it was the icing on the cake. Now we're at the new part of this war, and it is starting to take a turn for the worst."

"Man, life is now just starting to get good for us until we learn the truth. I don't like it." DJ said closing his eyes in disgust. "Now, we have to kill Gwen ourselves just like Heather did, and none of us have the guts to kill one of our own."

"Then I'll kill her myself." Duncan said making everyone turn their gazes to him. "Cody and I will most likely lead the battle with Izzy, Eva, and Noah. DJ will stay behind and watch over everyone when we decide to strike at Heather's new General. I'll go with the girls and get the families back to a secret base in Hawaii. DJ, you keep eye on everyone else while Cody does what he needs to do. I'm afraid this war is not going to be in our favor until the dark power is destroyed."

Noah watched from the window outside the infirmary and sighed when he saw the worried looks on the people watching his friends. 'This has to happen.' He opens the door and walks inside which makes everyone turn their attention to him. He waves his hand at them and says, "Hey, I just came to see how everyone's doing."

Izzy rubs Owen's arm and glances at Noah. "What are you doing here?" She asked quietly.

Noah sighs, "Izzy, you're going with Eva and Duncan on a mission." He looks at all the adults and puts his hands up. "I know that you guys want to be with your family member since you thought that they were dead, but you guys can't stay here with the rest of us." He puts his hands down and blinks. "Let me rephrase that. I know that you guys haven't been with each other after some time, and I don't want to break the family apart, but we need you adults to head over to a base where you guys would be safe. It's too dangerous for you guys to be here, and I am in no mood for any arguments. The main truth is that we need you guys to be safe until this war is over, and everyone is going to be fine."

"Why must we leave after only being finally connected with each other after just a few hours? We deserve to spend some time with our children even though they are unconscious. You might have lost your parents at the beginning of the war Noah, but we're still here." Bridgette's dad said firmly.

Courtney's dad sighed, "He's right though. Noah is right about us going into hiding. We can't risk our lives on the line if we don't have any battle experience."

Noah smiled sadly. "I'll let you guys be with you children for at least an hour. You'll have to leave when Duncan and Eva arrive." He looks at Cody's parents and watches them leave the infirmary to spend time with Cody. 'I really hate this war. I will kill you Drune Dine. You have caused major problems in this world, and I will make sure that you will die by the Total Drama gang even if it is Heather.'

Drune Dine was in his secret lab sitting in his chair with a frown on his face. 'I no longer have control of anything now. My own inventions have gone against me, and now Dark Heather is ruling the world. Noah, you are lucky to be even alive right now. You were right about the dark power, and I decided to ignore you. You were right about a lot of things, and now I'm paying the price for what I have done. If you guys manage to win this war I will make sure that I get what I want back before disappearing from you and the others for good, but you guys are not capable of defeating me anyway. You might be smart Noah, but I'm way better in so many ways.' He smirked, "Everything is going according to plan." He turned his head to the door and got up. "Phase 3 and 4 are now complete."

Duncan, Izzy, and Eva got into three separate tubes with the parents and Leshawna's cousin in them. Cody's parents gave Cody one more hug before walking into the tube where Duncan was. Cody waved goodbye while the tubes closed. The three tubes took off to the destination while DJ came walking up to Cody with a plate of cookies. "I'm gonna miss them." Cody said not keeping his eyes off the tunnel.

DJ nods in agreement. "Me too Cody. You want a cookie?"

"Ooh cookie." Cody turns around and grabs a cookie. "I'm glad that the expert cook isn't out of commission like everyone else. We got lucky this time." He took a bite from the cookie and swallowed it. "Hm."

"What is it?" DJ asked worried.

"I am going to be needing a lot of sleep to concentrate for the upcoming battles." Cody tossed the rest of the cookie into his mouth and walked away. "Plus, Sierra is unconscious, and Noah is seeing his old friends after being gone for a year anyway. We're going to be needing a lot of sleep."

"Can't argue to that." DJ said while Cody walked to his room. 'A lot has happened, and the events are really tiring on everyone. I really hate this war."

Noah watched DJ walk back to the kitchen with the plate of cookies and shook his head. "DJ, this is still only the beginning." He whispered then turned to the couch. "Well, some things didn't change while I was gone, but the war is now changing drasticly. I hate this war more now than before. Life is really cruel." Noah sat down on the couch and leaned back. "Yep, some things never change." He put his hands behind his head and felt the couch move back. He hit the ground with the back of the couch and groaned, "I still hate this couch."

Flashback

"You sure this couch is stable?" Noah asked Duncan and Geoff who were moving the couch into the room. "I think this couch is going to hurt me."

"Stop worrying man. It isn't that bad." Geoff said while they put the couch down. Geoff and Duncan sat down on the couch and leaned back with their hands behind their heads. "See there's nothing to worry about."

"Let me try it then." Geoff and Duncan got up off the couch, and Noah sat down on it. "Hm, I admit the couch feels nice." He leans back and puts his hands behind his head. "Ok, I admit it. You guys were right, and I was..." The couch started going back, and Noah's eyes widen when the couch hit the ground with him on it. "I hate saying this, but I'm going to say it anyway. I told you so."

Duncan snapped his fingers. "I told you we should have gotten the other couch instead of this one, but I'm glad that we got a video to watch for some entertainment." Geoff laughed and gave Duncan a fist bump.

"I'm stuck with people who want to kill me." Noah muttered with his eyes shut.

End Flashback

"I just wish Geoff wasn't dead." Noah muttered to himself. "I never got my revenge on him for getting this couch."

I know that this is not a good way to end a chapter, but I needed some entertainment with Noah anyway. Plus, you guys might like the next chapter anyway when I bring it up. I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I would love to hear or read in this case what you think.
